  6. Now add tomatoes and let it cook until it’s soft
  7.  Add ¼ cup of water, cover the pan, and let it simmer for 5 minutes
  8. While tomatoes are cooking grind the roasted coconut with very little water
  9. Add the grind coconut paste into the pan and combine everything
  10. Check for salt and add more if necessary. Let it boil for about 3-4 minutes.
